The three female journalists are embedded with ABC Darwin covering the international sporting event as part of the Women in News and Sport (WINS) program.

WINS is a program run by ABC International Development, funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. It aims to increase opportunities for women in sports journalism and through those opportunities boost the number of stories about women in sport.

The women are being mentored by ABC sports broadcaster Shannon Byrne for the duration of the eight-day tournament.
